Comment
Gotcha ! The first Russian we see going abroad in a long time. So much for "Turkey closes air space to planes carrying troops from Russia". OK, maybe it's not going to Syria but still...Still not seen : any Russian military aircraft flying to Syria or Libya via Iran or any other route.
@ 18:25 UTC : This one could definitely have landed in Libya.
@ 19:48 UTC : Could have, but didn't because it's flying into Tunisia.
Tunisia is usually where they go poof and disappear.
